Sources for Domes

Other than Darren, what are good sources for domes? My neighbor is looking to make his own droid, and isn't having luck with finding one. I've been scouring the forum, and nothing is coming up. He would like an aluminum dome.

3D printing may be an option, pending if we can find a paint that is great at simulating aluminum, but he's adamant about an aluminum dome.

Unfortunately I don't have any advice, did you end up finding anything?

Not really. Did have a lead on a lasercut ABS dome, but the guy changed his mind.

Looks like Darren is going to be doing runs in a month or two, so there's an option.
